We are currently working on a new plugin manager, to handle the third-party contributions in a more standardized way. Once defined as a plugin, an external toolbox such as the BEst toolbox could be loaded and compiled together with Brainstorm.

If you re-write your BEst toolbox as a Brainstorm plugin, I might be able to compile it and distribute it as part of the standalone Brainstorm package.
This would imply mainly to write an entry for it in the bst_plugin.m function: https://github.com/brainstorm-tools/brainstorm3/blob/master/toolbox/core/bst_plugin.m#L65
This is still under active development, but I will post again a message on this thread when it ready for the BEst developers to switch to the new implementation.
